ORGANIZATION

Speed Ladder

EXERCISE

First all exercises at low speed, then increase speed.

• Various exercises speed ladder (can be done with ball)
• After speed ladder shuffle exercise defend a ball
• After speed ladder exercise attack the ball on the outside
• After speed ladder exercise attacking a ball at the center
• After speed ladder excercise a turnover ball
• After speed ladder exercise block a ball

• A serves to B.
• B passes the ball to the playmaker, who then plays a high ball into the backfield.
• B defends this ball back to the playmaker, who then gives a setup for A.
• A attacks this setup.
• A lines up at the other side who defends the ball and has to score.

After the attack, A takes B's place and B becomes a reserve. The playmaker stays.

The outside attackers use the left half of the field with one playmaker. The middle attackers and diagonal attackers use the right half with another playmaker.

Extension:

• After the service, A takes a second ball.
• After B's attack A throws this ball into the field.
• B plays this ball to the playmaker, the playmaker gives a setup.
• B attacks again.

• the trainer stands at the net
• 1 person in the field
• the trainer throws difficult balls
• The person in the field has to touch 3 balls.
• If she does not touch the ball, you continue until she succeeds.
• The rest of the players stand around the field to catch the balls and put them back in the cart.

• Trainer throws in from the net and 3 players are lying on their stomachs on the backline
• Trainer hits the ball, 3 players stand up and the trainer throws the ball over the net
• the 1st person of the trio defends, nr. 2 gives a setup and nr. 3 attacks

• then next 3 team

3 players in front of the net in positions 2-3-4.

The trainer hits the ball and the players have to decide if they want to block the ball and if so where.

• the ball should be blocked and if so where. So the midfielder moves to the relevant side and the non-blocking front player moves back.
• The ball comes up high and must therefore be defended. The players all move backwards except the sv

Extend this by including the 3 players at the back.

• 1 person at the net, a back defender, a catcher and someone at the other side of the net.
• The person at the other end of the net throws the ball, just over the block before the three meter line.
• The defender comes from behind and stands on his good starting position. There he has to play the ball to the catcher.

See picture. Each 3 (or 4) players 2 balls. 2 players at the net a few meters apart, other player(s) in the backfield.

• Exercise 1: Players take turns throwing the ball, player in the backfield plays the ball back underarm.
• Exercise 2: First ball comes deep, 2nd ball comes short
• Exercise 3: Throwers stand a little further apart and throw straight: player with ball on the sideline throws deep, other short. Passer moves left/right.

After x-number of balls or after some time swap places.

• players form pairs
• 1 player stands ready to defend the ball, other player stands behind with a ball
• at a moment the player in the back throws the ball with a small curve over ( left or right ) the player in front.
• This player tries to get the ball up for the second bots ( fist under the ball or ducking ).
• The intention is that players react to an unexpected situation.

• Place 3 pawns around a player.
  • 1 to the left, 1 to the right and 1 behind (working player)
• Another player, with the ball, is going to indicate to which pawn the working player has to move (good posture = hands loose in front of the body).
• At an unexpected moment, the player with the ball throws the ball (preferably not too easy) and the intention is that the working player defends the ball.
• Repeat this a few times and then change players.

• Player T.A. from the net:
  • 3 teams on the back line on the belly
• Player gives slap on ball, 3 players stand up and trainer attacks one of the trio defends, nr. 2 setup and nr. 3 attacks
  • then next 3 team
• Andre side are 3 blockers.
• Slide through per 3 team

Attacking at position 4, blocking at pos 2 on the other side (if there are enough players also blocking at pos 3), defending at pos 1 and 6. After defending, the ball is caught by the blocker.

• 1 sv
• Defenders remain standing
• Attacker becomes a blocker on pos. 2, if also a blocker on pos. 3, the blocker stays standing.
• After 5 minutes the defenders (and blockers) change.
• Attack at pos. 2 and 3, blocking at pos. 3 and 4 (if 1 blocker stands where the attack is going on), defence at pos. 5 and 6.
